3 or 4 year PhD Programme in Developmental and Stem Cell Biology at UCL

This programme offers a unique environment with one of the largest and strongest concentrations of high quality developmental and stem cell biologists anywhere in the world. For more details and application procedures please see: www.ucl.ac.uk/biosciences/study/phd/cdb

The programme provides training at the interface between developmental and stem cell biology. It is available either as a 3 or 4 year programme. The 4 year version includes a first year with a taught component and rotations in 3 laboratories providing the basis for an informed choice and an excellent platform for progression in the research project in years 2-4. Both include active, small group training in key skills including good writing, experimental design, reviewing papers and many modern techniques as appropriate to the project.

All applicants will be required to satisfy standard UCL academic and English language entry criteria, including a minimum upper-second class (2.1) honours degree (or overseas equivalent) in a relevant subject.

Applications from self-funded candidates are welcome. Please note that there is no funding attached to this programme, but you may apply for a UCL Scholarship.

Application deadline for September 2021 entry: Friday 11 December 2020 (candidates applying for a UCL Scholarship).

Applications from self-funded candidates will be accepted until 31 May 2021.
